GoTo Webinar is the long-running choice for trainings, town halls and marketing webinars, with registration pages, reminders, polls, Q&A and attendance reports, and host apps for computers and phones. Reach is $62 a month per organizer billed yearly for up to 500. But cloud recordings, Simulive and breakout rooms wait for Elevate. - **Value for money: C.** Reach is $62 a month per organizer billed annually, for up to 500 participants. For a monthly 100-person webinar that's mid-category: cheaper than Zoom Webinars' entry license, dearer than WebinarJam's Starter. Cloud recordings need Elevate at $103. - **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 30-day free trial with no credit card, which is long for this category. - **Features: C.** Registration pages, reminder emails, Practice Mode, polls, Q&A, handouts, captions and reports on every plan. The gaps: Simulive, cloud recordings, breakout rooms and branding need Elevate, and paid events and certificates are Complete only. - **Ease of use: C.** No App Store rating on record. Attendees join from a browser, but hosts install the GoTo app and set up registration, reminders and practice runs. - **Platforms and integrations: A.** Web, Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android, with HubSpot, Marketo, Salesforce, Pardot, Prezi, Interprefy and Intellum connections.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 10 of the 14 other webinar and live streaming tools we grade. It costs $744 a year. - You could not: Live video to hundreds of people at once. - You could not: Speech turned into text you can trust. - You could not: Apps for macOS, Windows, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other. - You could not: It plugs into other products, HubSpot, Marketo and Salesforce Pardot among them. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
